Chapter 161: Eager Beaver—Start to Train

On any other day, when Qin Ruo gave an order to Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess, he would not get any response. However, now during the Ice Python’s attack, Qin Ruo was able to save both Grandiose Dragon, who almost died and Blue Princess, who attracted the aggro of the Ice Pythons. At least, the two people escaped from death.

Therefore, just after Qin Ruo roared out the order to kill the Ice Python whose aggro was attracted by Blue Princess, without any hesitation, Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess obeyed him.

As soon as Grandiose Dragon attacked, the Ice Python turned to him. This way, Blue Princess was able to use her long-ranged attack skills to support Grandiose Dragon without much trouble.

Violetmoon Devilite continuously cast Healing Aura. At the same time, Qin Ruo controlled several Frostramparts to block the other Ice Python and the Yeti, trying his best to decrease the number of attacks on Grandiose Dragon.

With Qin Ruo’s backing, Grandiose Dragon’s health gradually recovered. Although sometimes there were some attacks that “leaked” and landed on him, the situation was obviously not as dangerous as before. With everyone’s help, Grandiose Dragon released his wrath on the first Ice Python.

Ice Python was killed, 231 EXP obtained.

When the system notification sounded, Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess’ focused their attacks on the other Ice Python.

Qin Ruo systematically reduced several Frostramparts. Instead of going all out, he used only two to three Frostramparts to obstruct the Yeti’s vision. The atmosphere became less tense as the DPSers only needed to focus their attention on one target.

Although the Frostramparts were frequently smashed by the Yeti, Qin Ruo’s Elementalism speed was god-like in the Snow Domain. As soon as the Yeti smashed down a Frostrampart, another one instantly rose up to replace it, blocking the Yeti’s vision again.

Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess who just had to concentrate on dealing with another Ice Python were more relaxed. Every now and then, Violetmoon Devilite would also cast a Psychic Assault to help.

As a consequence, the second Ice Python died much faster.

Without the two Ice Pythons to back it up, the Yeti was not a threat to them anymore. Qin Ruo had almost used up his MP. So, he simply retreated and sat down at the back to meditate and recover his MP. When facing the Tier 4 Zephyr Swordmasters Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess, no matter how thick the Yeti’s arm was, it could not hold their attacks. It died faster than the Ice Python.

The battle ended. Grandiose Dragon, who had finally vented his rage against the three monsters, was not happy at all. He walked to Qin Ruo with a sour expression. This time he really embarrassed himself. Because of his action of not listening to others, it had almost got them killed. Despite that, he refused to bow down to Qin Ruo due to his pride and arrogance. Even though he wanted to lash out at Qin Ruo, he knew that he should just swallow it.

Qin Ruo knew that Grandiose Dragon was greatly dissatisfied. Thus, he tried not to say anything that would hurt him further. He focused on mediating and restoring his MP, unlike Grandiose Dragon, who drank potions sparingly and had no plan at all. This guy had used more than ten bottles of HP Potion and a few bottles of MP Potion just for two Ice Pythons and one Yeti.

“So… What do you think about the Ice Python’s strength?”

Qin Ruo asked Violetmoon Devilite who just came back.

She was startled for a moment and then she recalled the main purpose of them battling was to let her familiarize with the combat power of the Ice Python. She tilted her head slightly and then nodded.

“Overall, very powerful.”

“It can get more powerful, depending on how you command it during the battle,” Qin Ruo explained.

“Based on the previous Ice Python’s fighting style, it could cast the AoE melee attack skill while condensing the water element magic. With your buff, it is no problem for it to deal with two Tier 4 Warriors.”

“Two?” Violetmoon Devilite paused for a moment.

“Sure!”

Qin Rou nodded and said, “In fact, with the Ice Python’s combat power, it has an advantage when dealing with the Tier 4 Warrior. Its advantage is its huge body size. Furthermore, it is fast and agile. Unfortunately, it is not very intelligent. If it fights under the command of the player and used its speed with melee and long-range attack abilities, its combat power would be very impressive. It is unfortunate that this monster is not affiliated with Elementalism, otherwise it would be even better!

“…”

Qin Ruo sighed as Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess, who stood silently on the side, rolled their eyes at the same time. They were imagining Qin Ruo bringing the Ice Python baby and casting the Elementalism at the same time. That speed… would be exhilarating.

However, after seeing the powerful Ice Python’s ability and the Qin Ruo’s explanation, Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess’s desire to get a pet suddenly became stronger.

“Qin Ruo, can I ask you something?”

Grandiose Dragon’s tone was obviously much better than before—Qin Ruo could not find the arrogance and resistance in his tone anymore.

“Go ahead.”

“What do you think if Blue Princess and I also bought Ice Pythons as pets?”

Blue Princess nodded. She was also a long-ranged attack class, according to Qin Ruo’s theory in the Pet Store, it was good for her to have a melee combat type pet which had high HP. Now she had seen the strength of the Ice Python. It not only matched the conditions that she needed, it also had the long-ranged attack capability. She got excited.

Seeing that Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess’s attitude were improving, Qin Ruo’s tone became less aggressive. He replied in a friendlier manner, “The Ice Python is very good in its own right. In my opinion, it could be suitable for many classes. But, it is mainly for the long-range class and support class. Blue Princess is okay… But for you, Brother Dragon, I suggest you pick an auxiliary monster, or a long-ranged attack magic type pet…”

“Why?”

Grandiose Dragon’s brain started to melt as he patiently asked.

Qin Ruo rolled his eyes before explaining, “Although the Ice Python has the long-ranged attack ability, its long-ranged attack strength is not as good as other same level magic type monsters. You are a melee fighter. It is difficult to take care of the overall situation when the battle begins. So it’s better to use a magic type pet that is easier to command. Besides…”

He paused for a while. Then he looked Grandiose Dragon up and down and continued crudely, “With your melee combat level, even if you had an Ice Python, you would not be able to give a good command. This means that its melee ability is probably useless.”

“…”

Grandiose Dragon’s face turned solemn, but surprisingly there was no rebuttal. He was indeed a noob in terms of his melee attack ability. He even had nothing on Violetmoon Devilite’s brother. Qin Ruo was telling the truth.

Qin Ruo looked at Grandiose Dragon’s pale face and continued, “If I were you and really want to be a pro in this game, I would go solo. You need to slowly practice and experience it for yourself while accumulating combat experiences and skills. If you just want to play casually to kill time and pick up chicks, then you may disregard my advice. You just need a mighty looking pet, aka the Vanity type.”

Violetmoon Devilite and Blue Princess stared at Grandiose Dragon silently, both worried. Violetmoon Devilite even quietly sent a voice message to Qin Ruo, “Brother Qin, stop provoking him. Grandiose Dragon is quite egoistic… being so straightforward… he might not be able to bear it.”

“Hmph, that’s because he’s your friend and also your brother’s friend. Otherwise, I would be too lazy to scold him. In the future, if you two play with him often, it is will probably incur hatred. If he can’t stand it, then he only has one choice, delete the account and leave H&G.”

***

There was no response.

They reached a Yeti farming point in the depths of Snow Domain and started to grind.

The DPS dealer was not Qin Ruo, but Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess. Qin Ruo’s attacks were severely nerfed in the Snow Domain. He went there purely to train his skill’s mastery points.

After Grandiose Dragon listened to Qin Ruo’s suggestion, he had completely changed. Every time when a Yeti respawned, he immediately dashed forward. He fought the monsters one-on-one or sometimes even one-on-two. In that time, he did not drink any potion and put all his focus on his attacks.

Qin Ruo did not know whether Grandiose Dragon was having a great awakening or what, but since there was an eager beaver to hold up the monsters at the front, he was also happy to train his Tier 4 attack skill in the rear.

In the beginning, it took every three to four seconds for him to cast a spell. Now, he could cast a spell in two to three seconds. The increase in speed was all due to the mastery of the skill. Meanwhile, Qin Ruo’s understanding of the Tier 4 spell could sometimes further increase the speed to just two seconds.

For example with Darkfrost Sting—because of the Snow Domain, he could directly extract the ice nearby to “freeze” and then “transfigure” the attack. In normal situations, it usually took at least four seconds to cast a spell. However, Qin Ruo gradually reduced it to only two seconds to cast the spell.

This breakthrough suddenly made Violetmoon Devilite who always paid close attention to Qin Ruo, feel very amazed and shocked.

“It is so fast!”

‘Is this still a Tier 4 spell? How come a Tier 4 spell is cast in two seconds?’ (The Snow Domain itself had a certain affinity to increase speed. Besides, Qin Ruo’s equipment can increase speed by 25%. By disassembling the spell structure and omitting some steps, it can save time and decrease the casting time by almost half.)

Soon, Grandiose Dragon and Blue Princess slowly felt the same shock as Violetmoon Devilite. Originally, it took three to four seconds for Qin Ruo’s skill to play out. But in later stages, Qin Ruo’s magic was more frequent and quick. It reached an extent that shocked everyone.

Sometimes, Qin Ruo’s Darkfrost Sting would hit a target and before Blue Princess’s arrow skill was even released, Qin Ruo’s attack landed again and it was still that high attack Tier 4 spell.

Although Qin Ruo did not deal much damage, it was so astonishing. This made people wonder how much damage it would deal if this magic with this frequency hit monsters that were not in the Snow Domain.

The rest of them followed proactively, trying their best to no disturb Qin Ruo’s casting. At this moment, all of them were thinking the same thing—Qin Ruo’s strength was undoubtedly strong. Especially in Grandiose Dragon’s view, Qin Ruo who quickly condensed the Tier 4 spell, grew in stature in his mind. He secretly compared himself with Qin Ruo and finally concluded that in a one-on-one combat, he would be killed before he could even get close to Qin Ruo.
